A 100-passenger cruise ship will offer you that extra comfort that comes with heavy displacement and a larger number of people with whom to share your moments of leisure.

The Expedition Ship M/V Galapagos Legend has all the commodities of a cruise liner, yet it is still small enough for a more intimate experience with nature.

Of course, the extra room space offers more comfort, and our carpeted and air-conditioned state rooms (54 outside and 3 inside), with their hot and cold water supply, have some extra goodies that will make your visit to the Galapagos Islands a legend come true. In short, the Galapagos Legend's five star rating is more than enough to make your trip to the Galapagos a journey that will remain with you for the rest of your life.

The island is best known for its endemic plants like the Galapagos millwork, passion flower and button mangrove.

After a short trek visitors encounter colonies of masked and blue-footed boobies.

The nesting grounds sometimes overlap the trail. Visitors will also find Galapagos doves, hawks and swallow-tailed gulls and then reach the world’s largest colony of waved albatross.
